You may want to have a close look at the electrolytic capacitors.
A few months ago I had to repair some of the damage done by
a leaking capacitor. Fortunately I don't need the signals on the
parallel port, but I do use the serial console, and thus had to fix
the eaten RXD trace.
In the worst case, you can just buy a new A1200 board off eBay for 70 Euros:
Mine is an A4000 ;-)
